Touchpad-indicator 0.8.1.1 shortcut problem

Posted by on 26/08/2011 No comments


Ingredients:

I have all the features (autostart, disable touch when… , enable touchpad at start) ON.
When I start session with no mouse connected, touchpad is disabled and shortcut (set in preferences) doesn’t work.

A temporary solution:

  1. unchecked “disable touchpad when mouse plugged”
  2. in gconf-editor (Alt+F2 and type “gconf-editor”)
    apps > metacity > global_keybindings > run_command_1: <Control><Alt>0
    apps > metacity > keybinding_commands > command_1: python /usr/share/touchpad-indicator/change_touchpad_state.py

With these settings I can turn on/off touchpad with the shortcut “<Control><Alt>0″.
